• Place all containers so that the
opening allows steam to enter,
and air and condensate to
drain from the container.
• Sterilize jointed items in an
open position.
• Use only M9/M9D or M11/M11D trays in their appropriate sterilizer. Using
other trays could restrict air and steam flow to items.
• Place unwrapped items on a towel or absorbent paper.
• Pouches may overlap, but handpieces and instruments must be single
height loaded (not piled or stacked), to permit proper steam flow and pene-
tration to the items.
• Refer to below chart for maximum M9/M9D sterilization loads. If a load sur-
passes these limits, we recommend dividing the load and running multiple
cycles. Listed below are the maximum recommended loads for each
tray
and total
loads:
† Packs to have a minimum of 1/4 in. (6.4 mm) space between each other and
away from all sterilizer surfaces.
Refer to below chart for maximum M11/M11D sterilization loads. If a load sur-
passes these limits, we recommend dividing the load and running multiple cy-
